Fill the sink, squirt some thin bleach in. Should be able to feel that bleachy feeling between the fingers but not melt the fingers away. I've got no idea the correct dilutions to use. I reckon as long as its strong enough it doesnt matter if you are rinsing well.

I've just started going down the bleach road myself, and with the little bit of digging i've done the ratio seems to be: 2ml/ltr long steep, or 5ml/ltr short steep with thorough rinsing.

I use a splosh or two of thin bleach with a few liters of water.

Seems to work pretty well at that dilution. :grin:

 

I use 1 cup of Domestos per 5 gallons, leave to do it's thing for 24 hours, then rinse untill Chlorine smell has gone.
